I think you should say that floppy disk with ppt files should propagate some virus. It’s not personal laptop that breaks video-projector, it’s the people who don’t know how to use them.

So I politely send them a mail back explaining that word documents were a closed format (with links and stuff) and that as a GNU/Linux user I did not have (nor wanted) acces to M$ Word. So I kindly asked them to pay me a windows and M$ Office license or let me send it as a pdf. Apparently it wasn't worth the expense and I was allowed to send it as a pdf file. And laptops giving projectors troubles? No way. They were made to do that. Get a mail from a Barco guy to back you... Well at my school they asked to send in my abstract as a word document.
